Lighthouse


During our October, 2006 trip to the East Coast, Dan and I took a day off to visit Cape Cod in search of pix.

Approaching this lighthouse, I guess that I was remembering the Andrew Wyeth drybrush painting, "Storm at Sea." He had an anecdote about someone passing by while he was painting and making critical comments because Wyeth had "cut off the top of the lighthouse."

So I went ahead and cut off the top of the lighthouse. Of course, Wyeth’s painting has the trademark Wyeth gloomy sepia look.
